Cricket / This player of Team India is rich in luck, got place even after flop performance

Ind vs SL, 2nd T20: Team India has decided to bowl first after winning the toss in the second match of the T20 series against Sri Lanka. Team India is ahead 1-0 in the three-match series. For this match being held in Pune, Team India has made two changes in its playing-11. Sanju Samson is out of the match due to knee injury. At the same time, fast bowler Harshal Patel has been shown the way out of the team. Harshal proved expensive in the first match. He took 2 wickets for 40 runs in 4 overs. Arshdeep Singh has been included in the team in place of Harshal. At the same time, Rahul Tripathi has entered the field in place of Sanju.

Succeeded in creating a buzz

Captain Hardik Pandya's trust still remains on spinner Yuzvendra Chahal. He has got a place in the playing-11 for the second match. Chahal proved to be a flop in the first match played in Mumbai. He could not even bowl his quota of overs. Chahal had given more than 20 runs in 2 overs and did not get a single wicket in his account.

Chahal's form has been a matter of concern for Team India. He did not get a chance to play a single match in the 2022 T20 World Cup. Between the years 2016 and 2021, Chahal has played 50 T20 matches, in which he did not complete his quota of overs thrice. In 2022, he played 21 T20Is. In these 21 matches, there were 8 matches in which Chahal could not even bowl the full 4 overs. These figures show that the Indian captains have no faith in Chahal. Apart from this, Chahal does not make any special contribution in batting and fielding.

This is India's playing 11 - Shubman Gill, Ishan Kishan, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Rahul Tripathi, Deepak Hooda, Akshar Patel, Umran Malik, Shivam Mavi, Yuzvendra Chahal, Arshdeep Singh
